@cabanascar42 I've seen Gordon, Johnson x2, Kurt Busch x2, Kahne, Regan Smith, Keselowski, McDowell and Bubba win in CUP, Harvick and Hamlin in O'Reilly.

Fun fact, every single NASCAR race I've been to, I've seen a unique winner. I head to the Coke 600 this weekend, does that change? The winners: Almendinger Buescher Love Jeb Burton Kyle Busch Allgaier Hamlin Hill Byron Custer Larson Ankrum Sammy Smith Almirola Bell

@DennyDelivers2 @jeff_gluck It was a damn good race in my opinion. The format made it better I'm sure but it was still good. If that All-Star caution didn't come out at lap 76 it would have gotten even better.

@jeff_gluck looking past the goofy format and the fact it was an all star race, the racing was actually fairly good for next gen dover standards

Was the Dover All-Star Race a good race?

@jeff_gluck This was a good race. Not a good All-Star race. If anyone watched that and wasn't entertained. I don't know what to tell you. I'm an Elliott fan and despise Hamlin as a driver. I respect his talent and love his Podcast. People hate Hamlin plus mad this was an All-Star race.

At Charlotte since 2019 minus DNF's in 2022 and 2023, Chase Elliott has a 3.8 average finish and he's had a result in the top 7 every race. 3.7 average finish at high-speed 1.5's this year and is the most recent winner (Texas).

@ifantasyrace Hamlin and Reddick will definitely be contenders. Elliott can be if he brings the speed he has the last three times. I have faith he can because of Texas. Hopefully he brings that car.

Best drivers at high-speed 1.5's this year over the three visited via average finish ... 1) Hamlin - 2.3 2) Elliott - 3.7 3) Reddick / Byron - 6.0 5) Buescher - 7.0 6) Wallace - 7.7 7) Keselowski - 9.7 8) Bowman - 10.5 (two races) 9) Briscoe - 11.3 10) Preece - 12.0

@JettMDK He great no about, but he did have some just average years throughout the first half of his career. Never bad but he wasn't elite every year. Hes been elite the last 8 years for sure. It is impressive.

Denny Hamlin is having a career very VERY few drivers can say. He’s never “fell off” Every driver has a “PRIME” run and then a fall off at the end of their career but Denny is one of the very few that has been competitive from start to finish. Denny is just as good if not better after 20 years than at the beginning of his career

These driver introductions started off very bad. They messed that all up. 😄

That was an impressive last few laps by Corey Day.

#69. Nice.

@NASCARInsights Thats impressive no matter the circumstances.

@SCATL924 Ty Gibbs in 3rd finished 16.531 seconds behind. In total, SVG made up over 45 seconds on him in the final run.

Two races, two similar situations: Connor Zilisch made up over 23 seconds on Jesse Love, who was conserving fuel, to take the lead on the final lap Shane van Gisbergen made up over 29 seconds on Ty Gibbs, who was conserving fuel, to take the lead with eight laps to go

@TeamHendrick @AxaltaRefinish @Hendrick24Team @WilliamByron Jeff always had the best schemes. After he retired the 24 just hasn't really been the same. Also painting the cars looks way better than wrapping them.

Introducing @AxaltaRefinish’s 2026 Color of the Year paint scheme. 💥 Solar Boost takes center stage this weekend in Dover bringing bold color innovation, performance and modern automative design at speed.

@Team54Zach Nevermind says its gonna be in the 80s.

@Team54Zach I got a feeling it may actually be a good race. No points so just have at it. Might actually turn out being decent. Not sure of the weather but it its cooler, maybe they will have tire wear issues.

Can we all just agree that the All Star Race is the least anticipated event of the NASCAR season? I don’t even know if I want to watch tbh

@jonathanoatess Its a paradox. The cars are easier to drive so passing is hard because everyone can get the most out of them so it's harder because it's easier. But the old car was hard to drive so it was easier to pass because it was hard to get the most out of the car so it was easier. IDK.

Spec car racing was supposed to equalize the field and make driver talent matter more than equipment, but I'm not sure we expected the cup field to be this even on talent.

@Bennieeexyz I was riding with my little sisters one day and "In the air tonight " by Phil Collins came on. The on sister says "doesn't Bill Collins sing this" and before I could correct her my other sister without hesitation say "no dummy, its Mike Tyson". I lost it. Disappointed but funny.

I was eating alone at a mexican restaurant once and a group of college kids were chatting over tortilla chips. There was some jabber and then.. "..we had to climb over the bob wire!" "Dude, did you just say 'bob wire'?" "Yea man, that spiky shit!" "You actually think it's called bob wire? Like fucking Robert wire? You think it's called Robert wire?" "Well what the hell do you think it's called?" "It's BARB wire you idiot! Like Barbara wire!" *the third guy* "Oh my god. You guys. BARBED wire. Because the wire has barbs, it is BARBED." "Oohhhhh!" "Fucking Robert and Barbara wire. Fuck you guys."

@NASCAR Crazy that he won almost 50% of the CUP Series Championships the next 16 years after this.

Before the seven Cup Series championships, there was this highlight. 🤣

@hayasaka_aryan Oh No! Not a Finrand!

@daletanhardt He got screwed.

I have no idea how that’s a jump on Ruggiero. That’s completely insane

@jeff_gluck These guys are professionals, they should be able to adjust and have no issues. The Chicago street course was way tighter than that. Its no different than having a permanent wall or barrier. They need to race with the track they have or maybe they shouldn't be out there.

Well it's certainly going to stop cars from going all the way out there and re-merging on the track...but could see someone ricocheting off this thing?
